Want to wish all of our hunters good and safe hunting this season. Am mid-packing and hope to be at camp in Penn for thur-sat.. Am off to a late start for various reasons. The Marlin 1894 44mag is going down stairs for a cleaning and joining the 480 BSBH in the que to go. The new M69 is jumping up and down yelling.. ME TOO ME TOO ! So. Oh and Penn and various other nearby states deer gun season opened this am.. Hearing a lot of shooting here now. Luck !

"Hie to the Hunters" a reference to a boyhood book. I don't know if it's still here. A town boy has to spend time with a backwoods cousin, comes of age..hunts, traps, etc.. Enjoy.

Good luck and good hunting. The Viking fit princess are headed down for her last hunt this year. I'm packing my model 69 since I'm tagged out.

Ya, 3 unbloodied guns going ! Sent the nephew back to Fla with my veteran 44mag SBH.. Killed a couple of deer with that'n over the years. One, was my best buck for sure, but nearly ended badly and I learned my lesson about light for caliber HP's and hunting. They don't go well together. IMHO..

Into home last eve.. My buddy got a smallish 8 pt using his Dad's ole 270. I saw enough deer but didn't see antlers on'em. Lots of sign, of bear too ! The M69 did outhouse duty and was carried any time the M1894 wasn't in my hands. But no shots fired. Drizzle mist or ice pellets the whole time, with high and varialbe wind. Am exhausted.
